Statistics indicate that almost a thousand construction workers are killed annually when on the job. Of these, one-third or over three hundred deaths will result from construction site falls. Prevention should be a priority since many of the deaths or injuries that result from these falls can and can be prevented.

Common construction site falls include roof related falls, crane falls, scaffolding falls, elevator shaft falls, falls resulting from holes in flooring, and falling objects. Proper protection equipment and safety precautions are necessary to protect the lives of workers and preserve the well-being of their families.

Electrocution is the death of a person by Electrocutions. When an electrocution happens at the work out, it’s a tragic case for all construction workers. Investigating must happen to find out what went bad and how it may have been prevented. In several events, an electrocution constitutes a result of dangerous working circumstances or several lapses by supervisors and foremen. Under these conditions, a death could have been prevented with proper care.

Fires and Explosions in Construction Site

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has ascertained that work fires and explosions kill two hundred and wound more than five thousand workers annually. Because of these understandings, special safety guidelines have been founded to prevent construction accidents developing from fires and explosions.

A fire plan had better exist at construction sites so that workers can be safely evacuated in the case of fires and explosions. These accidents can result in a great number of injuries, including burns that can result in considerable pain and even death. Fires and explosions are perhaps the most dynamical and tragical construction accidents that can come about.
